Farm-to-Table Safety: PEI’s Commitment to Quality Eggs
Egg farmers of PEI work to make sure every egg is safe from farm to table through strong farm food safety practices.
Regular cleaning and sanitizing of facilities, equipment, and egg-handling areas help minimize contamination and protect the health of the animals.
Eggs are cooled promptly after washing and kept refrigerated to preserve freshness and reduce bacterial growth. Health monitoring of hens, vaccination programs, and careful predator and pest management contribute to overall safety and welfare.
Through adherence to provincial and national standards, Prince Edward Island egg farmers strive to deliver safe, high-quality eggs to residents and visitors.
